Starting from July 1, the salary of the military in Albania will increase by 30 percent, the Minister of Defense, Niko Peleshi, announced after the end of the meeting of the Council of Ministers.
He said that all military personnel benefit from this decision. In the Armed Forces there are 38 categories that receive salary.
"At today's meeting of the Council of Ministers, we made a decision which is a decision that is not made often. In 30 years, I believe that there has not been a decision like this, related to the salary treatment of military personnel, that is, of the entire Armed Forces. Today we have made a historic salary increase", he said.
According to him, the minimum salary in the Armed Forces will be around 51 thousand new lek (430 euros). Peleshi said that the salary will also include food allowances and other treatments, depending on the difficulties./Euronews
